  • What on Earth is this in response to?? Did I say it was a hard riddle?

    I concede. AI has a superintelligient brain and I’m just so jealous.

    Point to any part of my comment that implied any of this.

    I only gave more info on how LLMs work since what you were describing were Marcov chains. I wasn’t saying you were wrong with the thrust of your comment, just the details on how they work. If they were exactly as effective as Marcov chains we wouldn’t be having these discussions, that’s why they can be misused.

    Feel free to discuss the actual words I’m using instead of this LLM word salad.


  • I think you’re seeing coherence where there is none.

    Ask it to solve the riddle about the fox the chicken and the grains.

    I think it getting tripped up on riddles that people often fail or it not getting factual things correct isn’t as important for “believability”, which is probably a word closer to what I meant than “coherence.”

    No one was worried about misinformation coming from r/SubredditSimulator, for example, because Marcov chains have much much less believability. “Just guessing words” is a bit of a over-simplification for neural nets, which are a powerful technology even if the utility of turning it towards language is debatable.

    And if LLM’s weren’t so believable we wouldn’t be having so many discussions about the misinformation or misuse they could cause. I don’t think we’re disagreeing I’m just trying to add more detail to your “each word is generated independently” quote, which is patently wrong and detracts from your overall point.
